Abstract: A shaving system with two main components: an electric shaver and a remote device which has a display unit for presenting specific data to the user. The remote device may further comprise a mirror. The mirror and the display unit may be combined to form a single unit. The display unit may be incorporated in the mirror, which for this purpose may be implemented as a partly transparent mirror with the display unit mounted on the backside of the mirror. Additionally, the remote device may perform the function of charging stand for a rechargeable battery of the shaver. In that case the remote device has a docking bay for receiving the shaver. The shaver's battery is charged via electrical contacts between the remote device and the electric shaver, or by means of coils in the remote device and the shaver. The display unit displays status information of the shaver and provides feedback to the user during shaving. The remote device may further be implemented with knobs, buttons or slide controls to adjust shaving parameters in the shaver. Also environmental sensors may be incorporated in the remote device to inform the electric shaver of information relevant to shaving comfort. The data exchange between the remote device and the electric shaver is performed through wireless communication, which for some functions is a two-way communication.

Title: Systeme optronique de reconnaissance a compensation du mouvement vers l'avant
Inventor: MATHEWS BRUCE ALBERT
IPC: H04N5/372
Filed: 1997-11-05
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de compensation du mouvement avant (ou 'FMC' pour 'Forward Motion Compensation') d'un appareil de prise de vue à cadrage optronique, lequel système comprend un obturateur mobile et un détecteur matriciel plein cadre en plan focal. Ce système de reconnaissance est conçu pour ramener à un minimum la variation par mouvement de l'image de la scène observée dans toute l'étendue de la matrice en plan focal. Cette matrice en plan focal plein cadre, une cellule CCD par exemple, est conçue pour transférer et ajouter l'image, pixel à pixel, selon une cadence établie de mouvement d'image correspondant à la région exposée par l'obturateur en plan focal. L'ouverture et la vitesse de l'obturateur en plan focal sont fixées à des valeurs établies se coordonnant avec l'éclairage disponible. La cadence de transfert d'image CCD est établie de façon à ramener à un minimum l'effet de traîne imputable à un mouvement d'image dans la région de la scène exposée par l'obturateur en plan focal. Cette cadence est variable en fonction de l'angle de dépression de la visibilité directe, de l'altitude de l'aéronef, et du rapport vitesse / altitude de l'aéronef. L'invention concerne également une technique de FMC qui fait intervenir une comparaison, entre le niveau mesuré de lumière et une valeur normale, permettant d'évaluer le rapport approprié entre le temps d'exposition et la vitesse de l'obturateur. En outre, des équations de mouvement d'image intégrées à l'unité de traitement du système de reconnaissance permettent de calculer un signal de synchronisation optimale de la fonction FMC.

Abstract: A method for machining a variable displacement
compressor piston (21). The piston (21) is connected to a
swash plate (19) by a pair of semi-spherical shoes (22).
One end of the piston (21) has a slot (33) for receiving the
swash plate (19). The slot (33) includes a pair of opposed
walls (35A, 35B). Each wall (35A, 35B) has a concave
spherical recess (37A, 37B) for supporting one of the shoes
(22). When forming the recesses (37A, 37B), a tool (36)
having an asymmetrical spherical cutter (36b) is placed
between the slot walls (35A, 35B) in the piston (21). Then,
the piston (21) is rotated about a machining axis (L3) that
is perpendicular to the axis (L1) of the piston (21) and
intersects the midpoint between the walls (35A, 35B). Then,
the tool (36) is moved such that the center (C1) of the
cutter (36b) is located on the rotation axis (L3) of the
piston (21). This forms the recesses (37A, 37B) on the
walls (35A, 35B) such that the recesses (37A, 37B) conform
to a single sphere, the center of which is located on the
axis (L1) of the piston (21).

Abstract: A system and method for providing telemarketing
services through a hypertext network that interconnects
a telemarketing server system with a customer computer
and an agent computer. The telemarketing server accepts
a telemarketing request from the customer, and forwards
the request to the agent if the agent is available, and
to a queue if the agent is not available. When an agent
receives a request, communications are either
established between the customer and agent at once, or
else scheduled for a later time. Telemarketing
functions are implemented separately from media
transport functions through a hypertext network such
that the need for geographic centralization of
telemarketing agents is eliminated.

Abstract: The method involves adopting a pair of identifiers (VPI-VCI) of Lp and Lc bits when a virtual connection is established. Data relating to the virtual connection in relation to the pair of identifiers are stored within a table (4). At the input of each ATM cell, with the header including the pair of identifiers for one of the virtual connections, data from the table relating to the virtual connection are read. The table comprises p.2<m> memory regions organised into 2m lines and p columns. The data relating to a virtual connection are stored in a region of the table whose line is referenced by an index of m bits calculated by application of a systematic cyclical code of which the polynomial generator is of degree m. A binary word is extracted from a sequence of Lp + Lc bits of one of the identifiers arranged in order of decreasing weight, followed by the bits of the other identifier arranged in order of increasing weight.

Abstract: A flow stabilizer (151) is provided for reducing low frequency flow oscillations within and
the resultant noise from the impeller (131) of a transverse fan. Such oscillations and noise
can arise in installations where the fan is located downstream of the heat exchanger (120) in
an air conditioning unit. The stabilizer (151) is a vane located between the downstream face (121)
of the heat exchanger (120) and the suction side of the impeller (131). The vane (151) is positioned and
oriented so as to reduce localized counter swirling flow that otherwise would cause
oscillating blade stall within the impeller and associated noise.
